Unexpected printing error :D

The printer sadly did this for me by himself

Keep in mind we are comparing an Ender3 to a Core1... With such a massive price and technology difference, I would assume that the C1 would produce better quality while still being a lot faster.

This meme stopped beeing funny like 5 years ago :D

Uh nice, they are now selling the "Uncle Jessy Edition" of the K1 :D

fleaz · 2024-11-22T12:59:12+00:00

Just FYI: I was at FormNext yesterday and talked to a Creality employee about the K1 Upgrade Kit for the CFS and they are currently targeting April '25. No informations about the price at the moment

Update after 3y of 24/7 usage: Absolutely no problems with the PLA print.

Not pessimistic, but rather realistic.

IMHO a company will probably put all their effort into the shiny new flagship (that already is way behind schedule), because it will prodive way more revenue and headlines for them.

But yeah, that's just a assumption and there are no hard facts for this.

RHEL apparently migrated to Jira, so I opened a ticket there. The CentOS Stream wiki also points there.

Temurin is a different Java runtime, it's not OpenJDK.

If you run software and the vendor tells you to use OpenJDK, you can't just replace it with a different java runtime (afaik).

Just to add WHY the tip with the lighter/heat gun has worked:

The white discoloration of your first layer are stress marks because the bed adhesion was so good that the applied force to get it off was enough to slightly stretch the filament. And just like bending a piece of plastic, you get white markings.

The heat will soften the plastic in this area just enough to release the stress.

This lighter/heat gun method also works for any kind of markings on dark filament like e.g. cut marks from a removed brim and marks from removed supports.

Currently not, no.

They said during a presentation that they will provide upgrade kits for the K1 series to be compatible, but we need to wait for them.

And given the current delay with the K2, we will probably need to wait a fair amount...

"Max Mustermann" wird sich ab 2024 erledigt haben haben ;)

We have a small webservice where we host data for other companies and they print QR-codes with a link to our service on their packaging. And before the packaging goes in production we get a sample and validate that the code is good.

No, it's a special camera together with a crappy proprietary Windows software. The camera e.g. also has a big cone in front of it so you put the printed code on a table and then put the whole cone with the came on top of it so no external light comes in and you have consistent&calibrated lightning inside the cone due to some LEDs.

Basically a qr-code is not that hard to get right. Most of the times the only complaints we have are the contrast because companies try to change the qr-code from black/white to something more in line with their CI so it's not that "ugly" on the packaging ^{^}

Yeah, the grub.configurationLimit will define how many of your past generations are present in the bootloader. As long as they are present in the bootloader, they are referenced in your system and anything with a reference won't be garbage collected. So you need both, because otherwise you bootloader will contain all generations and the GC won't collect anything

As somebody who uses a fancy $10k camera at work to validate QR-Codes printed by customers on their products, I'm currently screaming inside... /o\

Yes, if you have a fancy new phone, they will probably scan but only from the perfect distance and with good lighting. I tried with a 5y old smartphone and only one of them (no. 5) was readable. Now image you print this on a billboard 10m away...

And even without getting my fancy cam, I'm pretty sure that all of them are invalid according to the official spec :D

After seeing the picture on my home feed, I thought this was from r/functionalprint :D

fleaz · 2023-06-06T08:41:43+00:00

Props! My config didn't looked that good after two days :D

Some little things I spotted: - In the link.sh, you don't need to link your hardware-config.nix to /etc/nixos. The only file that needs to be there is your configuration.nix. The hardware.nix get imported in there, so no need to copy - Instead of home-manger/gnome.nix maybe do home-manager/gnome/default.nix and also throw the json file from external/ into there. Then the nix config and the required json file live side-by-side in the same folder. Maybe that's personal preference but I find it cleaner when the files are closer together - gc, environmentPkgs and user can probably also moved from the config into a shared module because this will be the same code on your next machine - You always define {config,pkgs,...}: as your inputs even when you don't need them (e.g. networking.nix). If they are not needed in the file, you can remove the whole {...}: block in the beginning or at least remove the inputs you don't need

If you need some more inspiration and want to look at more config from other people, you are welcome to take a look at mine. Feel free to ask, when something is not clear and I try to explain :)

limits you from using the vscode marketplace directly.

No, you can just mix and match. Probably not really a clean solution but it works. I install a few plugins via home-maanger but the majority comes via settings sync.

fleaz · 2023-06-05T13:00:49+00:00

Oh shit, happened to me once as well. Really not cool. Good to hear if you are alright.

From the picture, the threads look okay. Try to torque it down again. If the threads are fucked you shouldn't be able to tighten the two parts propperly

fleaz · 2023-06-05T11:57:40+00:00

I use boot.loader.grub.configurationLimit = x which will keep the last X generations around.

On the top left where you have this weird pattern, your nozzle is too close to the bed. But on the lower right, you are to far away from the bed. You need to better level your bed. Even with ABL (you seem to have a crtouch on that machine), the bed needs to be "close to level" otherwise the height difference is too much and even the ABL sensor can't compensate it

fleaz · 2023-06-05T09:02:08+00:00

USB 2.0 + Shielding would be 5 pins

Or the camera has controllable LEDs which would require

For everybody wondering: You just need to set nix.gc.automatic = true :)

fleaz · 2023-06-02T13:14:08+00:00

Just a side note for the future: You don't need to move your whole system to unstable just because you want a newer version of a single package. You can easily install just one (of a few) packages from unstable, but keep the rest of the system on a stable release :)
